In this online engineering specialization, you will master the fundamentals of semiconductors and evaluate the performance of electronic devices by completing courses in semiconductor physics, PN ...

Bipolar transistors, essential components in a myriad of electronic devices, are highly susceptible to the adverse impacts of radiation. Ionising radiation introduces defects within the semiconductor ...

Building things in a lab is easy, at least when compared to scaling up for mass production. That’s why there are so many articles about fusion being right around the corner, or battery technology that ...

Back to analog, let us start some Schmitt trigger experiments with jellybean bipolar junction transistors… This post explores the classic emitter-coupled Schmitt Trigger circuit. A Schmitt trigger is ...

IGBT, stands for Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor. It is a bipolar transistor with an insulated gate terminal. It combines a control input with a MOS structure and a bipolar power transistor in a ...

The first transistor was successfully demonstrated at Bell Laboratories in Murray Hill, New Jersey, in 1947. This three-terminal device has spawned many of the electronics devices that make possible ...
